Most of them exist for the most part. The problem is they’ll only have like 20 people.
Or 85 posts a day by 3 different bots with one and only one commenter.
r/buyitforlife is a treasure
It was a treasure until the people pushing their new product started posting.
But there is no new information popping up there. BIFL exists as a few individual blogposts listing all the good items, one of which is on Medium.
r/liberalgunowners
I just want to chat and joke, discuss laws and politics, see cool new builds and gunsmithing ideas, without the fucking right-wing toxic soup.
The kindness/sanity vs. # of subscribers was astonishing. Everyone was super nice for such a large sub.
Also, where else you going to see trans folks sporting their latest gear? 😆
NGL I miss it too
I’m personally a huge supporter of Pigs for Porkchops, a group where all the pigs can get together and express their love for eating porkchops
I miss the local communities. I like to keep up with what’s going on in my city and surrounding area. I refuse to install Meta apps on my phone, so I can’t view the city Facebook groups and Nextdoor is a pile of garbage.
Frost was a very good foss FB client until recently when it broke:/
We currently have everything that I really wanted coming over. Unfortunately there’s niche stuff here but there’s no one home. I was helping, trying to post in a few of them on a regular basis but there were just crickets
At first I was against the bot onslaught*, but it’s actually kind of nice being able to get my news here.
Honestly even at the levels where we’re at now I think everything is just fine I don’t need Lemmy to feed my doom scrolling and take up massive amounts of time in my day. I’ve become much more productive in all areas since leaving Reddit.

Man, I feel you
Datahoarder and buyitforlife
There are many that I miss.
r/fanfiction on Reddit is a great community and I had only positive interactions with people. With 350k-400k users and there is a lot of discussions and positive interactions. On Lemmy it’s very baren.
A lot of fandom specific subreddits which are very active have no Lemmy equivalent.
I haven’t logged in to Reddit since the whole API scandal, but I miss it a lot.
If you ever find or start an r/fanfiction alternative I will post stuff there so just lmk
There is [email protected] but the culture is very different from r/fanfiction.
There is [email protected] which has the same rules as the subreddit, but is even less active than the first options.
Edited so the links will work.
More of the animal humor ones. I mean other than some niche communities. Animalsbeingdicks, teefies, silly stuff like that. It’d be a nice eyebleach between all the news articles about war and politics.
/r/framework
It’s the only thing I specifically seek out on Reddit.
It exists but it doesn’t have the activity/content.
It’s last post was 5 hours ago before that the was an another post 3 days ago and the content is pretty much the same as the main reddit framework sub
in my opinion
FountainPens just one of my smaller less popular hobbies. That and EDC. We do have at least an EDC channel here but it’s now near as big.
I used to use [email protected] but unfortunately they shut down a few days ago.
Gosh I didn’t realize that I miss that.
I’d love to see smaller game devs have a federated presence with their content.
Right now, I only use Reddit to keep up with game devs who only post game content and updates on their own subreddit.
A community for every video game. It was really nice to start playing a 10-20 year old game and still find a very active community to engage with.
I’d love a sublemmy about Rollercoaster Tycoon
community*
r/soccer.
I just want my goal highlights without ads.
An emulation subreddit dedicated to talking about various different video games emulators and emulation itself.i might consider creating lemmy. World emulation subreddit but only if enough people are on board
I miss the team subs of teams I’m a fan of. Also subs for the motorcycle brands I love
Yes! I miss my r/Triumph and r/KLR650. Also missing r/Miata.
